Dylan Collie announces departure from Rainbow Warrior football team

Rainbow Warrior football wide receiver said aloha to his teammates and head coaches last night as he tweeted out a message on Twitter announcing his departure from the team.

“I want to thank all my coaches, teammates, and support staff at the University of Hawaii for all the wonderful experiences I’ve had over the last three years,” Collie said. “With that said, I have (decided) that it’s in mine and my family’s best interest to finish my college football career elsewhere and further my academic studies following graduation this May. I look forward to seeing where I will continue to play the sport I love and where I will start working toward my graduate degree.”

Collie was staple in the Warriors offense over the past couple of seasons since coming to Manoa, racking up 1,300 receiving yards and nine touchdowns over his three-year career, including 636 yards and four touchdowns this past season.
